NEW PROVIDENCE — Borough Council will hear the names of those who have been declared “qualified bidders” for the first of the borough’s liquor license.

The council changed the original date the names of qualified bidders were to be announced from Nov. 12 to Jan. 28, after Hurricane Sandy hit.

The deadline for prospective bidders to submit their application to the borough was 4 p.m. Jan. 14. The borough attorney checked the applications and tonight everyone will know how many, if any, bidders were qualified.

Qualified bidders will submit their sealed bids and they will be opened at 10 a.m. Monday, Feb. 11. The license will be awarded on Feb. 25. The minimum bid is $400,000. In a letter dated Nov. 8, management of a local hotel told the council that it would not be bidding for the license because it didn’t fit into their business plan at this time.

The license itself will run from July 1 to June 30 the following year.

Other items on the agenda include a batch of resolutions and a presentation on the borough’s Complete Streets Policy.

At the conclusion of the meeting, the council will adjourn into executive session to discuss legal matters.

Members of the public are welcome to attend the council meeting which will be held at 7 p.m. in the municipal building, 360 Elkwod Ave., in the council chambers.
